Hi. I recently installed the official version for Mido. It’s been a while since I’ve been on the forum. I saw your post just now (after installation). Testing of the Android 11-based test build continues? Is there any information about a possible official version for mido (based on Android 11)? Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for the build.
Can I ask you the difference between 0.23 Pie (official) and your given Unofficial v 1.1 for Mido ?
Difference feature wise or security or privacy wise.!!

Thanks again

This version is based on android 11, also i believe that the official pie version ships with kernel version 3.18, whereas this one comes with ported kernel version 4.9, that some developers ported from the Xiaomi Mi A1.
On the OS site of things this one comes with the advanced privacy features of /e/ v1 and also with the new app lounge…
I hope that helps you.

Hi,
I flashed it on my working phone. Got stuck. It reboot many times (not all the times) in Recovery or get back to the first installation with an option of factory reset.
Second thing, it doesn’t detect any SIM card, in any of slots. Going back to 0.23 pie official.
Thanks

Hi @Chimpthepimp, are you back home ?
A mido came to me so if you need help in testing, let me know :wink:

Yes I am back at home for a bit, and had it planned to upgrade some devices. My mido is getting a bit dusty in the drawer after it got a little oilbath, but should still work :smiley: glad to hear you are still sticking to the device :slight_smile:

Only delay might be me upgrading my desktopsystem, but lets hope everything will go as aspected
